Here's a gift of pain, I see it now, at first I thought it was all unfound, yes, a gift of pain, a reminder to keep my feet back on the ground
(Unfound)
I stumble, I trip, I get defensive, why the fuck always me but I know, yes, I know, God, I know in my heart, I know it was meant to be, gift of pain, I see it now, who ever thought I could?
Gift of pain, I's almost out, the mystery understood, understood
When all is fine I build a fantasy of stone within my mind, an ego fortress, protected walls, infallible design
(My mind)
But reality marches through, pillaging everything in its way, kicks off my crown right to the ground and leaves me in a daze, a gift of pain, I see it now, who ever thought I could?
Gift of pain, I's almost out, the mystery understood, understood
Who ever thought I could?
Well, I see it now
Why the fuck always me, I see it now
Who ever thought I could, I see it now
A gift of pain, I see it now, at first I thought it was all unfound, yes, a gift of pain, a reminder to keep my feet back on the ground
I stumble, I trip, I get defensive, why the fuck always me but I know, yes, I know, God, I know in my heart, I know it was meant to be
Gift of pain, I see it now, who ever thought I could?
Gift of pain, I's almost out, the mystery understood, understood
